LESSON 2 : WHY FI?

You now have your definition of Financial Independence (FI) and are intrigued enough to pursue FI – but why? It is important to know the why because this journey can be long, challenging, and at times boring. Knowing the “why” keeps us motivated. And if we truly understand our “why”, we will have the answer when our friends and family ask, “So what’s all this Financial Independence stuff about?” You’ll confidently retort with your “why”.

Take Action: For each of the 16 Great Reasons, consider how you believe your life will be affected when you reach Financial Independence. Write these ideas in a journal and refer to them often to remind you why you have chosen to achieve Financial Independence.
